I took a walk around the Australian National Maritime Museum in Darling Harbour the other day I found it quite interesting learning some more history about our amazing country of Australia the weather was overcast which gave the museum a more eerie feeling.

The Australian National Maritime Museum in Darling Harbour was opened in December 1990 and is owned by the Australian Government, via the Department of Communications and the Arts and can be found at the far north side of Darling Harbour there is a entrance fee of $25 but I didn't enter inside I enjoyed my walk around the outside of the museum seeing all the old navy, submarine and pirate boats.

Here at this maritime museum, you can climb aboard these tall ships, navy vessels, a cold war submarine which have been beautifully restored the James Craig 1874 Pirate Ship, the HMAS Vampire Destroyer Navy Ship and the HMAS Onslow Submarine just some a few of the World War one ships that fought in the war.

The HMAS AE1 Submarine that you see at this Maritime Museum is the sadist thing that you will see here this submarine was lost on 14th September in 1914 during World War 1 while it was patrolling German waters a total of 35 Australians and British crew and officers were lost in this tragedy it wasn't till 2017 that it was discovered at a depth of 300 meters in the bottom of the ocean and was recovered and bought back to the Sydney Harbour.
